Couple other items that would be helpful:
The option of using a Tempest style encoder wheel and getting the right "feel"
(pulses/revolution). These are not only easier to find than the Sega ones
(you can sub trakballs, worst case) but it would make things easier for a
universal vector setup.
A buffer on the coin input that automatically generates the right timing on
the normally open/normally closed lines (fits in well with the next item)
Standardization on the equivalent of a JAMMA pinout for vector games, with the
appropriate mapping on the multigame board. You would presumably use the same
pinout for your new vector system Clay.
